Reminds me of a weird scene in Star Trek IV where the crew went back in time to 1986 San Francisco. Uhura and Chekov were asking people on the street and a cop where Alameda was. I say “weird” because both of them went to Starfleet Academy in San Francisco, so their not knowing where Alameda is is as bizarre as someone in Manhattan not knowing where Brooklyn or Queens is.
As to Rey, I say do the tour. Naval vessel tours are great. My father’s former Naval buddy used to conduct tours of the Hornet before his death.
I remember that episode. Thanks for pointing that “weird” bit of trivia. I love trivia like that.
I never thought about that before, but you’re right, that makes no sense. Unless Alemeda gets wiped off the map at some point, annexed or renamed.
